Vincent Vega Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Of the three principal songwriters and guys responsible for the writing and sound of GN'R, whose post GN'R work has sounded the most like GN'R? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDeeds Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Slash most frequently, Axl pulls it off a number of times, too. Izzy doesn't sound much like Gn'R at all. All are missing a little something though. The same happened with Beatles solo works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Slash's stuff, particuarly the Snakepit albums, is essentially a weaker version of the Appetite sound and style. So I would say Slash.Axl is identical to what he uniquely brought to the Illusion era GN'R on the ballads. Streets of Dreams could slot in on UYI2. But, the rockers do not sound like GN'R.

MEXzilla Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I'd say Slash but each tend to show bits and pieces of GnR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmapelian Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Slash w/out a doubt which is why i frequent his shows the most since the split Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trqster Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Slash still has the "Gn'R sound" when he plays - but it's a shame that without Axl on vocals it's not really the same... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ana_1991 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Slash! But Duff's Believe In Me was also close to GNR sound... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 CD has all the dynamics, vocals, lyrics and some of that rage. Slash has the sound. First solo especially. Axls lyrics and vibe seem a bit down for Slash these days. Im not sure if Axl can write freewheeling lyrics anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Gunner Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 They all sound like gnr in their own way... if you take each ones solo work and throw it in a blender, you get the 5 headed monster that was gnrAxls got that voice and imo an unparalleled skill for writing the lyrics, which seems to stem from some fucked up, abstract way of thinking... slash has that dirty bluesy, borderline sleazy sound on lead guitar... duff had that Seattle punkrock feel... and izzy seemed a bit like slash to me in the bluesy sense but with a little more of a country feel to himThrow all that shit together and what youve got is the greatist mix of rock n roll artists that have ever worked together... none of them could have the old guns sound on their solo work even if they wanted to, which imo, they dont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Diet Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Of the three principal songwriters and guys responsible for the writing and sound of GN'R, whose post GN'R work has sounded the most like GN'R?almost voted Axl, but overall, Slash for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovim Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) Voted Axl. I mean come on, Street Of Dreams is practically a UYI song, and Axl's voice is the Gn'R voice so that obviously helps.Slash has his moments though. When I listen to Izzy's solo albums sometimes my ears catch that Gn'R thing, but it's under developed most of the time.
